On April 16, 1926, the Original Solid Rock Baptist Church was established under the leadership of the late Rev. Dotson and met at 2715 Washington Avenue in New Orleans, LA. As directed by the Holy Spirit, on March 27, 1930, the congregation changed the name of the church to New Hope Baptist Church. Upon the death of Pastor Dotson, the Lord called Rev. Freddie H. Dunn in 1952 to lead the New Hope Church. Due to the exponential growth of the congregation, a larger edifice was needed and in 1965 the church moved to its present location, 1807 Rev. John Raphael, Jr. Way (formerly LaSalle Street).
